A quick note to the person who kidnapped Matt Millen
And apparently replaced him with a competent manager.
Thank you.
Thank.
You.
Rod Marinelli just might get this laughingstock of a franchise turned around.
Lions
What’s the over/under on number of games until Kitna is rocking the colostomy bag?
Due to getting whaled upon while trying to run with the football.
MLIVE - Tom Kowalski
…there’s another new element to the offense that won’t grab many headlines but must be effective if the offense is going to click: the running ability of quarterback Jon Kitna.
Yes, that’s right, the running ability of a soon-to-be 36-year-old player who […]
An Open letter to Bill Ford, Jr.
To: Bill Ford, Jr.
From: Dave, Gorilla Crouch
Subject: The Chicago Blackhawks
Bill, we’ve never chatted so allow me to introduce myself. I started a blog back in September 2006. It began as a way for an ex-pat who lives in Chicago to offer his views on the Detroit sports scene. But I soon realized […]
Mike Debord’s offense coming to Allen Park
Tom “Killer” Kowalski wrote this morning about the Lions’ plans to develop a signature play. They feel the lack of a signature play is one thing that has really held the offense back over the past couple years:
Late last year, right tackle Damien Woody was asked about Detroit’s offensive struggles in the running game […]
Grading the Detroit Lions Draft
It must be said that trying to grade a draft literally hours after it has been completed is a worthless endeavor and that you truly cannot evaluate a draft until a few years later when the players have had a chance to either justify their draft slot or open up a franchise to criticism for […]
Lions draft picks bring mixed results
As I mentioned earlier, I could understand the pick of Gosder Cherilus with the first pick based on their offensive scheme and their glaring need for a right tackle. But the second pick of Jordon Dizon just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. The NFL website indicates he’ll likely play outside […]
Lions have mixed results on first day of NFL Draft
With Rod Marinelli having a greater involvement in the draft, the Lions appear to be finally acheiving some modest measure of success with what should be sure-fire draft picks. 2006’s top draft pick Ernie Sims has been one of the Lions’ best players; Calvin Johnson, while not filling a core need, should combine with […]
When it comes to MLB, Rod likes Mayo
In Tom Kowalski’s latest article on the upcoming NFL draft he suggests the Leos could select a middle linebacker with their top pick.
With a little less than two weeks to go until the draft, this is the scenario the Detroit Lions might be facing with the 15th overall choice in the first round: […]
For Lions fans, in Rod We Trust
There’s one thing and only one thing Chance Millen’s proven during his reign of error in Allen Park: he’s right up there with Isiah “is Isiah gonna have to choke a bitch?” Thomas as the worst executives in professional sports. So if you cannot bring yourself to completely ignore professional football or root for […]
Oh, to work for William Clay Ford
Imagine if your employer asked you the questions Nicholas Cotsonika asked Chance Millen in this interview and imagine you gave the answers that Millen offers up to explain his complete and utter failure managing the employer’s business. Putting aside the legitimate questions about the financial results for the business [#24!], the important questions are […]
